Premashraya Centre for Tata Memorial Hospital

Kolkata, India

Year: 2010

Having set up the Tata Memorial Hospital in Mumbai in 1941, the Tata Group has been working tirelessly to provide unhindered support to cancer patients. With cancer patterns in East India fast emerging as an area of concern, the group has seized the initiative to gift Kolkata its very own state-of-the-art hospital.

Part of this new facility is Premashraya, a unique group-housing facility that will provide an economical, hygienic and homely alternative that may be used during treatment, that more often than not goes on for months. Slated to come up at a distance of about 500 meters from the hospital’s location, Premashraya will offer basic amenities and free accommodation for patients and their families, especially the underprivileged from out of town.
